LNT1C224MSEN

The LNT1C224MSEN is a screw-terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor offering 220,000 µF capacitance at a 16 V rating in a radial can package. It is a polarized, general-purpose power component designed for bulk energy storage, smoothing and filtering in power electronics where high capacitance and high ripple capability are required.

Built for elevated-temperature operation, this capacitor supports an operating range of −40°C to +105°C with an endurance rating of 2,000 hours at 105°C, making it suitable for demanding industrial and power-supply environments that require robust decoupling and energy buffering.

Key Features

• High Capacitance & Rated Voltage — 220,000 µF (220 mF) capacitance at 16 V provides substantial bulk energy storage for smoothing and transient support.
• Screw Terminal Mounting — Radial can with screw terminals facilitates secure, low-impedance connections for high-current power paths.
• High Ripple Current Capability — Supports 14.1 A at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 16.21 A at 100 kHz (high frequency), enabling effective handling of AC ripple in power systems.
• Endurance at Elevated Temperature — Rated for 2,000 hours at 105°C under rated ripple and DC bias conditions for reliable life performance in hot operating environments.
• Leakage and Loss Characteristics — Specified leakage current of 5,000 µA and tanδ (DF) of 0.8 measured at 20°C, 120 Hz to aid in design verification of standby and loss budgets.
• Wide Temperature Range — Operates from −40°C to +105°C to cover a broad range of industrial ambient conditions.
• Packaging & Availability — Supplied in cardboard packing and currently in mass production for volume procurement.

Typical Applications

• Power Supply Smoothing — Bulk capacitance for smoothing DC outputs and reducing ripple in industrial and commercial power supplies.
